Newgen OmniFlow and Camunda are competing products in the business process management arena. While Newgen OmniFlow is favored for its pricing and customer support, Camunda stands out with its feature-rich offering, appealing to tech-savvy teams.

Features: Newgen OmniFlow is known for its comprehensive process automation, strong document management, and easy integration with third-party apps. It also offers a user-friendly interface with low-code/no-code designer tools and excellent integration capabilities. Camunda, on the other hand, is recognized for its open-source platform, rich developer tools, and adaptability to various programming languages. Its lightweight architecture, wide BPMN standard coverage, and advanced REST API features are particularly valuable.

Room for Improvement: Newgen OmniFlow could benefit from enhancing its process customization options, improving documentation for new users, and expanding support for community-driven innovations.

Reduces costs with hardware abstraction and simplifies scaling

There is an issue where, in some situations, I need to scale up by observing both CPU and memory usage of containers, yet under the current options available at Amazon, this is not possible. I have to choose between monitoring CPU or memory to scale my solution. Not every software is built for deployment as a container service, although the current architecture trend is changing this.

Flexible in terms of how the UI assists users working in a variety of roles

Our initial setup was complex because we are guaranteed to have approximately two thousand concurrent users. We began first with a couple of servers, then after a couple of years, as we saw that the usage was going up, we grew both horizontally and vertically. We have a pretty big team here, with fifteen huge processes. I would say that from a development perspective, building one complex process will take a couple of developers, and an additional person is required to exclusively handle the support. There are many factors to it. In our organization, we need 24/7 support because we have trade finances that work in the middle of the night. We require additional support to accommodate people working in shifts. If change requests come in then one developer may be able to handle three processes. In the case of a new requirement, there is normally one developer who works with the team leader that is monitoring the entire setup.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"One reason we selected Camunda or Cloud/DB is that it comes with the support of the BPMN notation, which helps to define processes in a standard manner. Another reason was that Camunda Cloud, as the name says, is designed for a new cloud era."

"Overall, the solution has been very solid."

"We have a lot of users, almost 1,800, and we needed something affordable, stable and something that could be used by a large financial company. This solution truly fit the bill."

"The platform's approach to BPMN modeling is straightforward and versatile, making it easy to adopt and use effectively."

"I love that Camunda is a very developer-friendly platform, and my customers have evaluated the pricing as reasonable."

"The flexibility is great."

"We can share, discuss, and develop the model together — from a distance. It's really helped us during these times of isolation."

"It allows me to present or to demonstrate the business process flow, visually, without having to resort to PowerPoint, Visio, or other products."

More Camunda pros

"They are a good team that is proactive, and they are trying to accommodate all of our requirements."

"The most valuable feature for us is the Omnicon. That made sense for us because our company is now able to capture information from documents."

"It is working fine so far. I haven't heard anything bad about it from the applications team that is using it, so I assume that it is doing okay."

"The integration capabilities of Newgen OmniFlow are excellent due to its ready APIs, enabling easy API creation for consumption across different systems."

"The most valuable features of Newgen OmniFlow are the user interface, the low-code no-code designer tools, and the integration models are important."

"Newgen will structure the system based on all the requirements of the business. We can design the forms as complex forms or make our own versions to fix what's wrong."

"The most valuable feature is the flexibility in using it."

"The UI is easy. It's not very code based, so you can make certain changes on your end."

Cons

"The user interface needs improvement. It should be more tailored to the end-user and offer a better user experience design over the user interface itself."

"There should be a multi-tenant solution for the platform where it supports multiple organizations on one platform instead of having to spin up multiple clusters for each organization. There should be an easy way to integrate different departments into one platform without having to operate multiple platforms. The operations should be easier with the enterprise solution. It should not create more overhead for the operations people."

"We're trying to put the people from the business to do it. We are using APIs, and we have open APIs to define our APIs and the request-response that each call requires and sends. So, to base the mapping on that, there was nothing to help. I know that with some tools, such as Oracle tools, you can see the input and expected output. With drag and drop, you can take one property from the left and drag it to the right, and it does all the mapping itself, but that's not the case with Camunda. So, for me, this is something that can be improved."

"The support offered by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"An improvement would be to support Angular 2 instead of AngularJS, which is quite old."

"The solution could use some enhancements like adding connectors, improving forms and having a mobile app, but everything is an enhancement rather than a flaw."

"Camunda needs to improve its user interface for low-code development and provide more user interface options beyond the basic workflow."

"When addressing a complex and extensive process, the domain it belongs to, be it banking, healthcare, or HR, requires widespread access."

More Camunda cons

"I would like to see more automated analytics built into the solution."

"The development teams should be more agile and they need to have more team members."

"There should be some reporting and dashboarding capabilities. I don't see such capabilities built into it. Sometimes, the leadership wants to understand the business cases that we want to automate. We face a lot of challenges to justify why we are using Newgen, and we need a way to present that to the leadership. If there is something out of the box and if we can get meaningful dashboards and reporting capabilities, it would be helpful."

"In terms of stability, like every product it has its issues."

"We had consistent issues of Newgen OmniFlow crashing. It's not compatible with bounce browsers like Chrome."

"Improvement is needed in supporting the partner ecosystem."

"Newgen OmniFlow could improve by having more out-of-the-box integration modules. It would be beneficial to have an analytics model that is not currently present."

"At the system level, I would like to see things be much more flexible, especially for different document templates and introducing changes."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cheaper licensing and resources than competitors"

"The cost of this solution is better than some competing products."

"There is a bit of scope for improvement in how the licensing and pricing are done. They are based on the number of processing instances you execute on the cluster... but on the self-hosted mode, the pricing model should be customized."

"The license is quite expensive, which is why we went with the community version."

"We have an annual subscription to this solution."

"We are using the paid edition because there is no separate support and service license yet. We are yet to find a suitable licensing model for Camunda because we only use the engine, and we have implemented our solution around Camunda Cloud. So, we are mainly interested in the support and service, and that's what we mainly use in the paid edition."

"Compared to other software, Camunda Platform is quite cost-effective."

"The price is competitive with products like Bonitasoft and RHPAM (Red Hat Process Automation Manager). We have two versions of Camunda. The first version was open source, without support, but then we got a supported version."

More Camunda pricing and cost advice

"Its price is a bit on the high side, but that's okay. From a company perspective, it is reasonable."

"The on-prem solution is affordable. The cloud solution is more expensive. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."

"The price of Newgen OmniFlow is priced reasonably."

"Overall, this solution is very cost effective when compared to other solutions in the market."
